Hemen Biarritz

Hemen Biarritz is a distinctive brand that originated in the picturesque town of Biarritz in 2014, founded by the creative duo Marie Guyot and Emmanuel Mouazan. The brand is a reflection of the Basque Country's raw elegance, seamlessly blending vintage aesthetics with unparalleled comfort and a commitment to sustainability. Initially catering exclusively to men, Hemen Biarritz expanded its horizons by introducing its first womenswear collection in May 2021. The name 'Hemen' itself, which means 'here' in Basque, encapsulates the brand's ethos of being present and engaged in the creation of artisan-made, sustainable clothing.

The founders have deep roots in the Basque Coast, having been based there for over two decades, and their connection to the region's natural beauty is evident in their designs. The brand draws inspiration from the powerful elements of the Basque Country, where the tumultuous storms and serene lifestyle converge, influencing the color palette that ranges from the verdant greens to the deep blues of the ocean, and from the radiant grays to the rich reds of the earth.

Hemen Biarritz prides itself on being a human-sized family brand, embodying a lifestyle that doesn't compromise between urban living and the wilderness, between a passion for fashion and a love for nature, or between family and work. This philosophy has given rise to a unique business model that began in the founders' family home. From humble beginnings in their kitchen, where they stored their first boxes in the living room, the brand has grown organically, maintaining a commitment to operate on a human scale. They emphasize personal customer service, handling online interactions themselves, and valuing the contributions of each team member, from resellers to suppliers and freelancers.

The brand's operations continue to be home-based, surrounded by a network of talented freelancers, each an expert in their field. Together, they are on a journey of growth, guided by a shared vision of creating products that are fairly priced, reflecting the value of their work and that of their partners. Hemen Biarritz offers complimentary shipping within the EU for orders over 200€ and in the USA for orders over 300€, along with convenient return options through their online form. Payment security is a top priority, with a range of options including Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Paypal to ensure a seamless shopping experience.
